Episode 622: Melbourne Bluefin Tuna On Poppers With Lee Rayner

The continued resurence of the Bluefin Tuna fishery around southern Australia is creating spectacular results for those using traditional tuna fishing techniques. But with fish available in good numbers it creates the opportunity to explore less conventional (and maybe more fun) techniques. Over recent years it's become quite common to stop the boat and cast lures at feeding tuna, usually a stickbait or a diving minnow style lure. But Lee Rayner has discovered that surface poppers can be devastatingly effective on tuna. Working a popper in the right way can result in visually spectacular, heart stopping surface strikes from large and fast moving fish.     Check out our other podcast episodes about southern bluefin tuna: https://doclures.com/southern-bluefin-tuna/ For more information about fishing the Port Phillip Bay area: https://doclures.com/fishing-port-phillip-bay/ For more info about fishing Phillip Island and Westernport Bay: https://doclures.com/phillip-island-westernport-bay/   Full show notes for this episode are available at https://doclures.com/melbourne-bluefin-tuna-poppers-lee-rayner
